VERO BEACH — Parents on both sides of the Kaitlyn Hunt case released statements Thursday morning.

Sebastian teenager Kaitlyn Hunt, who's been jailed since August in a sex case involving an underage schoolmate, was in an Indian River County courtroom for about 20 minutes this morning to enter a new plea in her criminal case.

She pleaded no contest to the charges against her and Indian River County Circuit Judge Robert Pegg accepted the plea. He sentenced her to the conditions in the plea agreement including staying in jail until Dec. 20.
